We hope you can join us for a special event marking the 100th anniversary of Melanie Klein’s first London lectures.
Focusing on her groundbreaking work in child analysis, Claudia Frank and Margaret Rustin will discuss Klein’s difficult yet formative years in Berlin, and her brilliantly creative early work in London.
The event will be chaired by Christine English.
To mark this special event, we are offering free tickets to all qualified and trainee child psychotherapists. Please let your colleagues and friends know. In order to receive a personalised code, please email contact@melaniekleintrust.org.uk.
